FOR THE SERIOUS TROPHY HUNTER, CORPORATE OUTING OR HUNTING FAMILY
About The Outfitter
The company started in 1992, almost 20 years ago. The owner of the ranch is the operator. It is a huge block of land and an incredible red stag, chamois and tahr habitat. It is a world class hunting destination for Europeans, Asians, South Americans and U.S. citizens.
The owner and operator has been a hunter and a professional guide most of his adult life. He’s seriously passionate about wild game, the great outdoors, and his commitment to remain the South Pacific’s leading big game outfitter.
The lodge has become the major-league outfitter of world record red stag heads in the South Pacific as well as all other New Zealand species.
This lodge retains an enviable reputation for maintaining the highest possible standards in professionally organizing and implementing New Zealand trophy hunts. They’re two exclusive high country properties and private hunting lodges in the central North Island, as well as free range concession for Chamois and Tahr in the Southern Alps. This guarantees you an unparalleled hunting experience. They retain the country’s most dedicated and experienced hunting guides. Not only do they possess a thorough knowledge of the terrain and wildlife, they are great companions, have excellent attitudes and are superb judges of trophy heads.

Getting there:
From the United States, New Zealand is an overnight flight from the West Coast (approximately 12 hours flight time). Both Air New Zealand and Qantas fly directly from Los Angeles and San Francisco to Auckland International Airport (North Island) – your travel agent can book your tickets for you.
Los Angeles is 19 hours behind New Zealand time. Please remember when you fly to NZ you lose one day, so when booking flights make sure you allow two days to get here!
From Auckland, you will need to catch a short connector flight to Palmerston North Airport where you will be met by our one of our Alpine Hunting team. You will be transferred to our lodge in a scenic two and a half hour drive “up country” with plenty of photo opportunities along the way!
When traveling from the northern hemisphere, we recommend an overnight stay in Auckland or Palmerston North to shake off the jet lag.
